Here’s the star of HBO’s hit The Last of Us adaptation Pedro Pascal like you’ve never seen him before: playing Super Mario in a gritty SNL skit inspired by Nintendo’s hit kart racing franchise. The spoof – which aired overnight, on 4th February – sees The Last of Us hero kitted out in a red hat and dungarees, as he hits up Rainbow Road in an attempt to rescue Princess Peach.
The dystopian adaptation sees cameos from the likes of Toad, Bowser, and Luigi, as Mario goes all Mad Max in the goofy spoof. It’s all very silly, but underlines the cultural impact that HBO’s new show is having – it’s been breaking records since debuting in January, with the recent airing of Episode 3 achieving widespread critical acclaim.
